Job Description
Boom exists to bring back commercial supersonic flight. Overture, our supersonic airliner, is the long game, and getting there means building turbomachinery faster than anyone ever has. Today that is Superpower, a natural gas turbine for next-generation AI data centers, on a development schedule nobody in the industry believes until they see it. The software problems on that path don’t have playbooks. You will write them.
This job is demanding and rewarding.
This job isn’t for everyone. You’re the right person if:
- You want to build software that makes hardware, and learning the hardware side excites you more than it scares you
- You’ve done something extraordinary early: shipped software with real users, built the systems your club or lab depends on, or done work that most engineers don’t see for years
- You’d rather ship something imperfect this week than something polished next month
- You want ownership, not guidance, and harder problems make you more energized, not less
- You find out what to build by watching your users struggle; waiting for a spec to arrive sounds miserable
- The test stand and the factory floor sound more interesting to you than a sprint planning meeting
What You’ll Do
- Own a defined piece of your team’s software, with real accountability for the outcome
- Sit with the engineers, technicians, and test crews who use your software, and build what they actually need
- Ship code your first week, and a tool in daily use by the end of your first month
- Work with AI as a first-class part of the job: agents as coding partners, and interfaces designed for agents as well as humans
- Iterate fast: figure out what’s wrong, fix it, and move on to the next problem
You will thrive here if:
- You want ownership, not guidance
- You get more energized when a problem gets harder, not less
- You’re comfortable not knowing the answer yet, and uncomfortable waiting for someone else to find it
- You’d rather watch a machinist fight a workflow for an hour than read a requirements document about it
